DEVELOPMENTS IN STRUCTURAL FORM, Second Edition

by Rowland Mainstone, R.J. Mainstone

* Contains over 300 photographs and drawings In the critically acclaimed first edition of this book (originally commissioned by the RIBA to fill a major gap in the literature), Mainstone offered a brilliant and highly original account of the structural developments that have made possible the achievements of architects and bridge builders throughout history. Over 300 photographs and drawings, mostly original and prepared by the author himself, accompany the richly imaged text. In this extensively revised new edition, the story is brought up to date with the incorporation of new insights and a full coverage of recent developments in both design and construction.
